I also faced this type of problem when I choose a custom server for update. If those repository is not available then this type of problem occurs.


First go to dashboard and search for software and updates. Now change the option like this and select download from option to Main Server

enter image description here



Now open Terminal (ctrl+alt+t)

Type




sudo apt-get clean && sudo apt-get update




After completing previous operation




sudo apt-get upgrade




and then




sudo apt-get install --fix-missing




Now this will keep you up to date to the main repository. Then try your operation




sudo apt-get install texlive-latex-base
